チャーミングコテージゲッタウェイ

West Coast transplants from California, we fell in love with the Cape in mid-January ten years ago and knew it would only get better from there. We chose Osterville for its central location, quintessential Cape feel, amazing beaches, and quaint village vibe. We are so enamored with this small, upscale village that our primary residence is right down the road. There you'll find my wife of twenty-five years and I and our two pugs, Chow and Tater. We are both educators: I am busy as an independent college consultant and business owner, and she teaches Latin full time at the local public high school.

Only a mile from our primary residence, the cottage is unique in Osterville, a village defined by beautiful rambling oceanfront estates. It is a small, quaint, and comfy respite just steps from downtown Osterville shopping and dining. Clean and updated our place is a wonderful getaway. It does accommodate three, though it is more suited to a romantic hideaway for couples or a beach retreat for a couple of friends.

In a nutshell, the charm our cottage oozes was the clincher for us. From the sea salt shade on the shutters and door to the finely manicured, postage stamp front yard. Large enough to feel comfortable yet small enough to be uniquely quaint, the cottage is all about location, location, location. Only a 1 mile bike ride to Dowses Beach or steps to downtown shopping and dining, the central location at the edge of the village is what stole our hearts.
